I honestly think that some of it was just psychological warfare. Maybe that's why Keller didn't take that pawn at the end. Maybe his thought pattern was something like this: ~ A pawn isn't protected. I better not take it and sacrifice some of my pieces, maybe I will draw then. It's Tal after all.

[@ahxMad]

best line of the video 😆

[@theazrael4423]

When you can't explain a move by a Tal opponent it's because as you once said, "you start seeing ghosts" . His style seems to be to take his opponents down a rabbit hole into wonderland.

[@aniketbramhankar5980]

It's interesting to see stockfish showing Tal's moves as wrong at first but when it goes deeper Stockfish realizes that actually it was much better than its own recommended move! #STOCKFISHCONFUSED

[@krishnamohan2351]

Aniket Bramhankar that happens a lot with tal games. Engines cannot think like us yet. :)

[@savinsnsn]

Krishna Mohan engines cannot think, yet...

[@thomasiloveladytrain8599]

Alpha zero

[@DaniloSouzaMoraes]

If tals apponent had been stockfish though...

[@DrLordSultan]

It's because a correct response to Tals moves would destroy his strategy, but after a suboptimal countermove Stockfisch evaluates, that the optimal moves from that point won't stop Tals strategy.

[@Creat1vPL]

In my thoughts Tall was the greatest mind (in chess) of the world. He complicated everything, sacrificed most significantion figures and... still can win :)

[@teddymargoles5829]

wow as a beginner this video was the first time I really realized how beautiful chess is. Tal is fantastic.

[@camreese]

This channel made tal my favorite player ever

[@OriginalThisAndThat]

Tal games are so entertaining. He basically knocks you out with swift jabs and keeps you hanging in the corner so you cant fall down or go to knee before you are totally hammered to hell..

[@jessespindler3152]

I love your coverage of Tal; my favorite of all time.

[@nonsensejerome]

One of the few games where tal's opponent loses a queen first lol hahaha

[@volodyanarchist]

At that point Tal stood up from the board, looked Keller in the eyes and said through the teeth "Oh no, you didn't".

[@jhonmalakiat7463]

yes after tal sacrifices his both knight and rook...

[@BeerdyBruceLeeCentral]

I'm in the Keller diet, I make alot of bad moves.

[@electricmaster23]

I feel like movements would work better... :P

[@fuktstund4143]

Is this a reference to Fritzl or maybe Helen Keller?

I don't think Keller realized his dark bishop existed in the entire game.

[@dhavalp22]

Jonah Haas damn true , why .…?

[@AbdulKalam-be5xg]

yes,in one move i think bishop can capture a piece,maybe i didn’t saw something

[@adyyonascu]

I was looking for this comment. Why didn't Keller's dark bishop capture Tal's knight when the knight forked the king and the queen? Min 10:53

[@ford950]

@@adyyonascu Rook is checking the king, since it's a double-check from the rook and the knight you have to move the king.

This is the most fitting title in your entire repertoire of Chess Game Analysis videos. This is by far the most complicated Chess game I have ever seen. Thank you!

[@imawarioimagonnawinn]

Crazy to think this game was played almost 60 years ago and keller is still alive! By the way you should add a bitcoin address for donations :)

[@pranatithakur1182]

At 5:20 after Re1 check Kd8 you missed Ne6 check forking the Queen.

[@yousufmohammad1163]

Such a enjoyable game of Tal ! ¡

[@davidreid5599]

After the Knight blocks the check by moving to b4, there is an elegant mate by Dc6+. The king is forced by check on d7 from a7 to b8 when Sc6 is mate. Check on e8 produces the same if king goes to b8 immediately. Blocking on c7 with the queen allows Dd5+ winning the rook. What a fascinating position. Poor Keller's head must have been bursting!

[@stateofdecay2210]

and now I get why you admire Tal , that is one hell of a complication

[@Shams_official1]

Holy smokes that rook he throwed at king with check must have shocked killer.. :D total Tal recipe

Ive run this game through stockfish and after move 23 black is actually hugely favored.

[@ron041]

At 11:00 why not bishop captures knight Saving both check and the fork

[@vanshajjain5265]

Because the check is from rook as well

9:19 what about bishop taking pawn on f2? Maybe he would not have won still, but could have relieved some of that pressure for a play or two. At that point he had a material advantage but not a positional one.

[@jmtluimem6427]

you could feel the enormous pressure in his moves against tal

[@nik0096]

Tal forces the opponent to calculate which ends up favoring him...Great Channel for Learning chess...Can you please make a video for chess openings with there strengths and weaknesses?

[@angelmatos9143]

Before there was Tiger Woods in golf, there was Tal in chess.

[@placidoborgia11]

Magic!

[@udaygupta6934]

At the time of Tal rook capture bishop on e4, keller should play RxG3. As the f2 pawn is pinned h2 will capture the rook, and QxG3 will be another check. Also if king moves it is better for black

[@paulbrowning9055]

Magician from Rega

[@mrjohnp555]

Botvinnik said about Tal: if he ever offers a piece, always take it (but never take one if Petrosian offers it), but Botvinnik kept the rest of the advice to himself: but you're not me...

[@vpravi]

5:22Tal definitely won't fork the king and queen😅😂

[@jasonsudirdjo8984]

I saw that too why did agad not discuss that

can you show the Keller Fischer game? Bobby Fischer loses so few of his games would be interested in seeing how Keller beat him

Great games. I am a recent fan. Have you posted Lasker vs GA Thomas. Lasker wins by hunting the black king across the board

I love seeing Grand Masters blunder. It makes me feel better about myself.

[@colindalton6632]

@8:38 I feel like white could have played bishop f3... looks pretty strong to me unless I’m missing a line

[@Nimaheshmati]

All he had to do was capture that pawn with the rook and he actually could've won the game, he had much more pieces, and just had to play accurately and coordinate his pieces. But I agree Tal complicates the positions and puts them in time trouble

[@shikharbaral8235]

At 5:25 of the video, there is a better move than taking the black rook. What about playing night e6 and forking the black king and queen?

[@maheshs4056]

12:02, maybe Keller didn't bother about the e7 pawn because he has a rook at a8 that could capture it immediately?

[@Kasparov527]

@5:23 simply knight to e6

[@pianoenthusiast]

I guess he can just recapture with his own knight on b8

[@Narrowcros]

That Re5 got to me, made no since. You had to grap that past pawn and the game might have been very diffrent.

[@pratikparmar8709]

5:25 agad missed the fork with Ne6+ winning the queen, the game is too complicated even for agad ! :D

I totally agree with you Agadmador,,,,

[@Rspknlikeab0ssxd]

Does anyone know what would happen if Fischer had won his game against Keller, and both Tal and Fischer would have tied with 11.5 points? Would they need to play some sort of a tiebreaker match?

[@Kasparov527]

Keller was really innocent here

[@sunayreddy4940]

Tals' recipe doesn't work on me, I'll blunder way before it gets complicated

[@MrScrubby55]

Now I finally know who the person who's always on top of Agadmator

[@morpher728]

7:26 what's about killing the pawn with Queen

[@juleskolo4156]

At 7:07, there is no check and no piece defending the e7 pawn, so it appears to me to be a free capture for black moving black queen from c7 to e7? Black knight to c6 looks to be a wasted move..

[@juleskolo4156]

People deleted their previous comments, so my comment no longer has any context, I was however agreeing with Morpher

[@pradyumnamundhe8643]

that is just brilliant..

[@shadowwalker4633]

At 8:55 he might have sacked the rook on g3 and hope for something 😀 if its taken its a draw if not move the queen and have some weird counterplay.

[@poisonoustoxin]

At 5:28, instead of rook a to d1, isn't Ne6 better? It checks the king and forks the bishop and the queen.

[@mikes.8647]

I missed Tal videos, at last! :)

[@iainmcclure416]
